Oh yeah sure;; lll;;; I figured it wasn't important to be punctual on
our made-up schedule; since Eeveelyn was still on vacation and
constitutes a third of our crew; so far;; ll'l :);;;
But you don't have to wait for my go-ahead; either;;; ll I've been
meaning to write & explain my idea about qww'xzx forums and internet
ruins; so I'll finally get to that; next;;; llll;;;;

True enough; ll;;;
lll'll; anyway; I don't want to make the proposal for -k all at once;
lll;; but the standing idea seems to be that it will have something to
do with emotion-marking; and probably include something to let us
render the senses of ? and !;;; As some fodder for this; what kinds
of senses we might include; I was looking for a short list of basic
emoticons (shorter than the Lojban attitudinal list);; here's a
transcription of the default set from my Adium and their names;; ;;

Alex, are you proposing to make the various emoticons as -k words
klk;; For example happy is "kk", sad is "lk", winking is "kl'lk",
question mark is klk;; or something like that klk;;

ll; yes;; in a very provisional; "run-it-up-the-flagpole" sense;; ; ;

ll; there's a K-group now but Alex isn't on it yet ;);;; The language
creation conference was this weekend; I believe;; ; so maybe Alex has
time to join us now?;; Some other folks, like David Peterson, also
told me that they'd be more likely to be able to work on this project
after the conference;; ;; so I've kind of been holding off doing too
much with qww'xzx until now; since our schedule mattered a lot less
than the conference's schedule :);;;

I like those!!;;; I think those are fine seeds to start with for
those words; anyway; and then as we use them we can see about giving
them their own distinct character (how kk is different than :) and lk
is different than :( etc);;;
lll;; I'd like to start using the words you thought of; Eeveelyn; and
see how it goes;;; I think maybe on this group I'm talking to you on
now we should stick with just L-words; though??;;; Here is like for
general discussion of the whole language; so I think it would be best
if everyone could read it;; ll'lll; we can use L-words here; because
it's easy enough to read qww'xzx-l even if you don't know it yet;; ;;
that was part of the plan;; ;; but hopefully with K and J we'll start
to become incomprehensible to normal reality :);;; lll'lll;;;;

You believe rightly; ll;; and it was a blast kk;;;
lll'll; I got an invitation to the -l group; when it was created; but
never an automatic one to the -k group;; and so I didn't think to go
looking for myself;;; Good to see it; lll;;;

Ooh; David had a mind to contribute klk;; That would be quite cool lkl;;;

I like them too;;; I wonder if it's the complete inventory of -k
words; though;; lll; probably not;; I envisioned there being more; and
Eeveelyn was just offering examples;;; (And I've sneaked one more in
here kl'lk;;)

ll'll; sure; in general;; But as for this thread; I figure internet
wayfarers will be able to read them; given Eeveelyn's explication
that's quoted here; so I've been freer in trying them out; just now;;;
